Vape Medical Mushroom Extracts?

I was wondering if anyone has tried to make a vape pen out of medicinal mushroom extracts? I remember doing an extraction, and the extract got to the consistency of syrup. It kinda reminded me of shatter, in a way. I was wondering, is it possible to take that goo, mix it with propylene glycol, and vape it on low heat? I can adjust the heat on my pen.

interesting...... chaga smoke is known to relive migraine pains but i'm not sure if vaping it is the way to go, you could just have it in tea? perhaps your syrupy solution would be better for plant food than vaping because of chaga's high silica content. but good luck!

Why?
You should try it, and then tell us why. Youll know first hand then.

Smoking is a way to intake specific compounds that can be realesed and absorbed in a gas form, there are many compounds in medicinals and most need to be absorbed in the stomach, with food preferably. Its not like were eating medicinals to get a high, we want the most out of it. A dual extracted tincture gives you a product that has most of the compounds extracted and must be taken orally with food for the best results.

Thank you for explaining. Oh well, I carry around an e-pen with shatter/PG in it everywhere I go, so I'm just used to a pen being convenient. Its too bad that medicinal mushrooms can't go in pens. I would use it all day.
By duel extracted, do you mean extracting twice, or extracting with two different...solvents? Like everclear for one, warm water for the other?

i believe a dual extract is once in hot water and once in alcohol which extracts different properties from the mushroom or whatever plant matter is being soaked.

Sounds good to me  I got a book by Tradd Cotter, called Organic Mushroom Farming and Micromediation. I think that book has extraction methods, so I'll give it another look. Good book.
